AP Power Sector Reforms envisage
creation of Distribution Companies as Government Undertakings for the first few
years and privatization later on. The Andhra Pradesh Gazette No.37 published by
the Government of Andhra Pradesh on Friday the 31st of March 2000 declared
formally formation of Distribution Companies. In this process, Andhra Pradesh
Southern Power Distribution Company was formed for the following six
districts of Andhra Pradesh. The Corporate Office and Headquarters of APSPDCL
is atTirupatiCity

Quality power at economic rates acts a catalyst in transforming the state by
fostering growth in agricultural, industrial and commercial areas while meeting
the increasing domestic demand. On Feb 1, 1999, Government of Andhra Pradesh
initiated the first phase of reforms and restructuring in AP's power sector by
unbundling APSEB into APGENCO and APTRANSCO to cater to Generation and
Transmission & Distribution respectively. APTRANSCO was further reorganized
into four distribution companies to cater to the needs to the different
districts of AP.

APSPDCL was formed in April 1, 2000 to serve Krishna,Guntur,
Prakasam,Nellore,
Chittoor and Kadapa districts with a vision to become an efficient
utility supplying reliable and quality power, promoting economic development
and being self-reliant commercially.

As on 31st March 2015, SPDCL has a robust distribution network to cater
to customers spread across 118119 sq. Km representing 439 mandals.

After the
bifurcation of the erstwhile Andhra Pradesh into the two new states of Andhra
Pradesh and Telangana on 2nd June-2014, two more districts Anantapur andKurnoolwere added to the Southern
Power Distribution Company of AP Ltd.
